Scenic Drives

This was our 4th trip in 5 years to RMNP and Estes Park. Each year we have stayed at Idlewilde by the River and each year we leave refreshed and rejuvenated. This year we stayed in Cannonball and we liked the upgrades over previous years. Deb and Larry were great hosts…although I’m sure every guest shows off the videos and pictures, they take the time to show their interest as if they are seeing something for the first time. Overall, I would rate this quiet and peaceful little haven a 10 out 10 stars. We will be back because the Mountains is in our blood and we will stay in Idlewilde because it is perfect.

Enjoy the portions of Trail Ridge Road that are open in the winter.You can also drive to Bear Lake Road and Horseshoe Park. As always in winter, traveling on the roads are weather dependent. For some additional information, go to the Scenic Drive page.
